should be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric

shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

If the appliance is damaged, check immediately with

the supplier before installation and operation.

Do not use this heater in the immediate surroundings

of a bath, shower or swimming pool.

Do not use outdoors.

Do not cover or obstruct the heater in any way.

Overheating will result if it is accidentally covered.

In the event of a fault unplug the heater.

Unplug the heater when not required for long periods.

The supply cord is recommended to be placed on the

right hand side of the heater. The heater can also be

HARD wired - this is recommended if the heater is

recessed - see ‘Recessed Installation’.

This appliance is not intended for use by children or

other persons without assistance or supervision if their

physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them

from using it safely. Children should be supervised to

ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by

the manufacturer or service agent or similarly qualified

person in order to avoid a hazard.

Electrical

WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

This heater must be used on an AC ~ supply only and the

voltage marked on the heater must correspond to the supply

voltage.

Do not switch the appliance on until properly installed. Please

read all the safety warnings and operating instructions.

possible future use, in the event of moving or returning the

fire to your supplier.

Contents of Carton

• Heater.

• Wall fixing bracket.

• Fixing screws and wall plugs.

• Remote control and batteries

(AAA’s type).

• Spare bulb.

Do not connect the heater to an electricity supply until it is

installed on a wall correctly - see ‘Installation’.

SP420 & SP920 - When in operation there is a 300 watt heat

output from the fuel effect, and an additional 120 watt output

when the heated glass panel is in operation.

SP520 - When in operation there is a 300 watt heat output

from the fuel effect, and an additional 200 watt output when

the heated glass panel is in operation.

General features of remote control are:

• Activate/Deactivate heated glass panel.

• The illumination of fuel effect can be increased or

decreased.

Please note: Used in an environment where background

noise is very low, it may be possible to hear the motor which

operates the flame effect. This is normal and should not be

a cause for concern.

Installation

Do not connect appliance until properly fixed to the wall

and the Instruction leaflet is read fully.

The minimum distances must be observed.

For installation of the appliance, care must be taken not to

damage concealed cables.

Please be careful while drilling the holes.

This model is designed to be permanently fixed to a wall at a

minimum height of 300mm. The wall bracket must be fitted

horizontally and the cable routed to the bottom right of the

heater as in Fig. 1.

A height of 600mm from bottom of heater to floor is

recommended for optimum viewing of fuel bed (see Fig. 2 for

recommended fixing dimensions).

For optimum viewing mark the top four screw fixing positions

on wall in accordance with the recommended fixing dimensions

- see Fig. 2. Drill holes with a 6mm drill bit.

Fix the wall bracket using the plugs and screws provided -

see Fig. 3.

Carefully lift the heater up ensuring that the top rear ledge of

heater engages the wall bracket and is sitting centrally

positioned. - see Fig. 4 (b).

Rotate the bottom fixing bracket down. - see Fig. 4 (c).

Gently bring the heater level with the wall. - see Fig. 4 (d).

Mark the bottom hole position (see Fig. 5), remove the heater

ensuring that the bottom fixing bracket is rotated up.

Drill and fit wall plug.

Refit the heater to the wall fixing bracket (i.e. follow steps as

in Fig. 4 a, b, c and d) and rotate the bottom fixing bracket

down again and use the screw provided to permanently fix

the heater in place.

The heater should not be connected until the instruction leaflet

is read fully.

Recessed Installation

Please note that this appliance can also be wall-mounted so

that it is recessed. This can be installed in a large fireplace

opening or a purpose built wall. See Table 1 for size of recess

required and hole fixing dimensions and Fig. 5a. This fireplace

insert does NOT require venting.

In order to ensure it’s future safety in use, it is essential

that this fire is securely fixed to the wall.

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE FIXING DEVICE CHOSEN IS

APPROPRIATE TO THE WALL MATERIAL TO WHICH THE

FIRE IS BEING FIXED. SOME MODERN INTERNAL

BUILDING MATERIALS ARE VERY LOW DENSITY BLOCK

AND REQUIRE SPECIALIZED FIXING DEVICES TO

PROVIDE A SAFE,SECURE INSTALLATION.

The installation of this fire should be carried out by a competent

person. If in doubt please consult your local builder.

This section provides step by step instructions for selecting

a location and preparing the site to install the fireplace into

the following:

Existing Fireplace

1. Make sure that the fire is located on a flat surface.

2. Seal all draughts and vents to prevent chimney debris

from falling onto the Fireplace Insert. Do not install into an

existing fireplace that is prone to dampness.

3. Remove the fire front panel by following the steps as

outlined in ‘Lamp Replacement’ sections.

4. Locate the 4 fixing holes, position the fire accordingly,

and firmly fix the appliance to the wall using the appropriate

screws - see Fig. 5a.

5. Replace the front panel.

New Support Structure Construction

When planning where to position your purpose built support

structure the following steps must be observed:

1. Place the fire in the desired location to see how it will

look in the room.

2. Mark the desired location for the new support structure

in the room and store the fire in a safe, dry and dust free

location.

3. Using timber studs to support the fire, devise and

construct a suitable means of supporting the product within

the wall partition and provide electrical power for the fire to

be HARD wired. For recommended sizes of height, width

and depth of opening for recess and hole fixing dimensions

for each model - see Table 1 and Fig. 5a.

4. When the structure is complete, remove the front panel

of the fire by following the steps as outlined in ‘Lamp

Replacement’ sections.

5. Locate the 4 fixing holes, position the fire accordingly,

and firmly fix using the appropriate screws.

6. Replace the front panel.
